Well, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I just wrote a test case
and it crashes. My main program is:
DataContext dataContext = DataContext.createDataContext();
Person aGal = (Person) dataContext.newObject(Person.class);
Person aGuy = (Person) dataContext.newObject(Person.class);
aGal.setFirstName("Lisa");
aGal.setLastName("Simpson");
aGal.setGender(GenderEnumeration.FEMALE);
aGuy.setFirstName("Bart");
aGuy.setLastName("Simpson");
aGuy.setGender(GenderEnumeration.MALE);
dataContext.commitChanges();
And it crashed with:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: value too long for type character(1)
Here is my enum:
public enum GenderEnumeration
{
FEMALE("F"), MALE("M");
private String newName;
GenderEnumeration(String s)
{
newName = s;
}
public String toString()
{
return newName;
}
}
Notice for the gender column it didn't use "F" or "M" as the value.
It used [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks,
/dev/mrg
PS. I also tried it without the toString() method in the enum.
